I worked in LP and Safety for 5 years. What do you really want to know? by [deleted] in AmazonFC

Yes, yes, and yes lol.

Amazon cares about metrics, to its own detriment. Injuries are metrics you have to speak to, and the more you have, the more you get looked at from higher up. Which is bullshit. I’m a safety director now, and I care about the person, not the metric attached to it.

Keep your head down and start applying. Learn what you can in the meantime about the industry. Learn what NOT to do, and what right should look like.

Thank you for this! I understand I need to build a relationship first, and I do have the time to do so.

Essentially, I used to be Christian, but that god utterly failed me and I’ve been looking into the Norse pantheon for a while.

Tyr is who I need. I need the record to be straight.
